Police used tear gas and rubber bullets to scatter anti-government protesters who interrupted an independence day military parade in Rio de Janeiro on Saturday, and demonstrations in dozens of other cities led to some scuffles between marchers and police.

 

Police said they arrested at least 10 people in Rio, and at least six marchers were injured. (AP)
